After incorporating feedback from public workshops, ComEd last week proposed a new series of metrics to the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC) the company said would help it better support the state’s new clean energy law laying the groundwork for 100 percent clean energy.
In all, it proposed eight performance metrics:
ComEd also submitted 11 tracking metrics for emissions reductions, grid flexibility, cost savings, diversity, and equity, to aid monitoring and reporting of utility performance. It proposed these as helpful to the development of future performance metrics, and for accountability, the ICC will evaluate ComEd’s coming performance against approved metrics.
“ComEd takes great pride in being a national leader in reliably and affordably delivering clean energy to customers, and these metrics encourage the high levels of service that our customers expect and all communities deserve,” Terence Donnelly, ComEd president and COO, said. “The metrics support the state’s new clean energy law, as they focus on equitably building a resilient power grid that can withstand more extreme weather caused by climate change, support the growth of clean energy innovations such as solar panels and electric vehicles, and balance the need to keep customers’ electric bills affordable.”
Any approved metrics would apply in the case of filing for a multi-year rate plan in the future.
